Resident urges speed bumps on Rutgers Way near Dixon High School
Summary
A Dixon resident asked the council to consider speed bumps on side streets in the new Rutgers Way subdivision near Dixon High School, citing children and shortcutting drivers and asking the council to refer the matter to the appropriate staff.
A resident asked the City Council to consider speed bumps on side streets of the new Rutgers Way subdivision off First Street near Dixon High School, saying families and school traffic create safety risks. "There are not speed bumps on those side roads ... I have grandchildren and they are being taught to not go into the street, but sometimes that doesn't always happen," the resident said.
The speaker explained students and drivers sometimes use those streets as a shortcut and urged the council to "direct to whoever might be the appropriate people" to evaluate traffic calming. Council members acknowledged the concern and suggested staff and the city engineer inspect the location; no formal action or vote occurred during this meeting.
